I made these apple cheddar scones from Smitten Kitchen two or three times in the past month, they are SO good.
I’ve taken the recipe exactly as she’s written it, only I’ve made some minor edits with ingredients and I chopped my apples before putting them into the mixer. I tried not chopping them, but they [...]
Most of my links this week are around food it seems. It’s getting cooler, I’m cooking for four people every weekday now so it’s on my mind a lot lately.
- How to render lard – This week I cleaned out my freezer in preparation for deer season and discovered 15 pounds of pork fat. I [...]
We got to the cinnamon roll recipe on the GNOWFGLINS Sourdough eCourse and Tara at Keep It Real had the idea to make them into dinner rolls filled with cheese and herbs.
I broke out my Sand Creek Farm gouda cheese, shook on some Penzey’s Sandwich Sprinkle and Brady Street Cheese Sprinkle, drizzled some melted butter [...]
I made some corn muffins with my split pea and ham soup tonight for dinner. I was looking for a good recipe when I stumbled upon Smitten Kitchen’s recipe.
I made some edits to the recipe though. I used sprouted whole wheat flour, honey instead of sugar, and raw milk instead of buttermilk (mostly because I [...]
Since I’m taking the Sourdough eCourse from Wardeh at GNOWFGLINS, everything is sourdough lately – which is not a bad thing.
My family was in town last week and I had built up my starter to make english muffins, sourdough chocolate chip cookies and and pizza dough while they were here (we had decorate-your-own pizza pockets [...]

But I have to admit, I’ve been struggling with sourdough cooking – especially with what was supposed to be so simple english muffins. How ridiculous I felt that I couldn’t master a [...]
I’ve had cravings for chocolate chip cookies lately. I’m not sure where it’s coming from. But I wanted to make a healthier chocolate chip cookie, if that’s possible so I looked up recipes for sourdough chocolate chip cookies. Surely, there’s sourdough recipes for everything – right?
I found one, over at Cultures for Health though I [...]
Whew, I’ve not posted about all the yummy stuff I’ve made in a while.
Today I’m making sourdough pizzas for dinner, so this morning I got the starter out and have been letting the dough sour for a couple hours. It turned out extra well with fresh sliced tomatoes, Sand Creek shredded gouda, chiffonade basil, garlic [...]
The other day, as I was looking for pieces for my Craigslisted Enclume pot rack for the new house, I wandered into Williams Sonoma to look at the racks that they had. I usually don’t go into that store, because it’s just like food porn. There’s no end to the ooohs and aaaahs of new gadgetry [...]
Monday, I roasted a chicken I got from my local farmer and we had with it duck fat sauteed beet greens, chard and kale. I picked the meat off for chicken salad later this week and froze the bones for later stock making.
Last week on Thursday I made a couple loaves of bread from [...]
